  16. GLACIER • Glacier is a web based International tax compliance system. • Instead of handing out tax forms to international visitors, you will be issuing them passwords.

  17. GLACIER • Business office procedure to receive access to issue passwords; e-mail the Tax Department the following information: • Name • Title • Campus address • Campus phone and fax number • E-mail address • You will receive an e-mail with your password and instructions on how to login. The e-mail will come from support@online-tax.net and not Purdue.

  18. GLACIER • When you issue a password, an e-mail is sent to the visitor asking them to enter their information into the Glacier system. The e-mail will come from support@online-tax.net and not Purdue. Please advise them to look for this e-mail and others in the future. • Advise them to keep the password and instructions for future use of the Glacier system.

  19. GLACIER • After the visitor enters their information, a Tax Summary Report, and any other required IRS forms will be available to print. Ex) 8233, W-8BEN, or W-7. The Tax Summary Report will replace the NRA-100. • If the visitor does not have a social security number or an ITIN, Glacier will put a hold on printing the forms for that visitor. The Tax Department can override the hold and print the forms when the employee is in our office. The business office needs to contact the Tax Department to override the hold which enable the visitor to print the forms. • The Tax Department will process the ITIN application upon receipt of the payment request.

  20. GLACIER • We will use Glacier to generate the tax forms required for payments to individuals receiving personal service payments, scholarships, awards, royalty payments, or reimbursement of travel expenses via invoice vouchers. The Tax Summary Report printed from Glacier will replace the NRA-100.

  21. GLACIER • Fellowship recipients will also be using this system. • For the payments above, check the Non-Employee box for Pay Period type when you are issuing a password. • If you have an incoming visitor having difficulties printing, offer to print the forms for them when they arrive in your office.

  22. Non Resident Alien Visas • Not all Visas are the same • Try to choose the appropriate visa for an individual before they come to the US • There are different restrictions for paying compensation and for reimbursing travel expenses • Refer to the visa payment reference sheets

  27. Paying an Institution Directly • If you want to pay an H-1B, TN, or O-1 a fee or reimburse expenses, you can pay their sponsoring institution directly. • Ask the sponsor to send an invoice to Purdue and pay it on a direct Invoice Voucher through A/P. • Contact SPS for guidance on their accounts. • The sponsor then passes along the fee to the individual and they are responsible for tax withholding and reporting.

  30. What is a Tax Treaty? • Treaties between the US and other countries are negotiated. They allow for certain types of income to be exempt from tax. • There are many articles (categories) in a tax treaty. Some of the common articles we use are an exemption from tax for employee compensation, scholarship and fellowship payments, independent contractor payments, prizes and awards, and royalty payments

  31. What is a Tax Treaty? • Some countries have an exemption from tax withholding for all categories of income and some may only have negotiated an exemption for independent contractor payments for example. • Please check the tax treaty charts on our website for a current listing of countries exempt from tax under each income type. • Glacier will indicate the allowability of the Canadian treaty, however, Purdue University does not honor the Canadian tax treaty; the individual can collect the treaty on their annual return.

  32.
